For V2.2, what keeps the programs from running sequentially?
What is your problem? I do not really understand.

END is a V3 feature. To keep programs separate in v2.2, use RTN.

I have some V3 overlays. I guess it's time to start peeling :)
Do it. V3 has a richer function set, a more user-friendly keyboard layout, and a much simpler and more rational approach to flash library organization.
Despite the build-up around the delicacy of the overlay placement operation, I found it pretty fast and effortless. It's time to upgrade!

Mike,
On the HP-41C and HP-42S, each program has its own separate program memory space within program memory. On these machines pressing GTO.. packs existing program memory and creates a new empty space to insert a new program.
The WP34S works differently. On the WP34S all programs are located in one common memory space. The END instruction (added in V3.0 or newer) only serves as a marker (separator) for local label searches and for local variables. Also pressing GTO.. in PGM mode on the WP34S will move you to the start of program memory (Step 000). At this point you can just start keying in a new program and it will be inserted into the beginning of program memory. Refer to the Programming section (around P33) of the V30 Owner's Manual for more detailed information.
